Year after year students leave the University of Utah, having completed four j^ears of training. Their numbers are not great, especially when compared with those of the new people who comprise the Freshman class each year. The latter group must necessarily be large, for, from it must be developed the future leaders of the school.The Freshman class of the past year has proved to be excellent material for refinement. It has had competent officers, outstanding participants in intellectual activities and noteworthy athletes. It has achieved much scholastically, socially, and culturally.Class rivalry with the Sophomores reached a high pitch during the fall quarter. The Flag Rush proved to be an exciting and interesting spectacle, even though the Freshmen greatly outnum-bered the Sophs. Following the first clash, there was no question as to the outcome of the one-sided fray, for the Freshmen had ganged upon the second-year men and left them bound on the field of battle. However the annual log-rolling contest depicted a turn in the tide and it was no difficult task for the Sophomores to batter down the heavy barricades and gain possession of the logs.Green and red paint was profusely used b}^ the underclassmen to enlist courage in their ranks in preparation for the battles. As a result of this enthusiasm the two classes were obliged to repaint the big "U" on the hill to cover their spirited demonstrations.This class, which will become the upper-classmen of tomorrow have repeatedly shown, throughout the year, that men of the calibre of champions are among them. Much can be expected of this year's green-lings ; and we have every assurance these expectations will be fulfilled.112 |
